The Prayer.
Lord God, and Almighty Father, seeing it hath pleased thee to adopt us for thy people, and to knit us to the person of thine only Son; grant we may continue pure and sincere in the obedience of thy Gospel, and that we never turn back again to those corruptions which may separate us from this so sacred a conjunction, established and confirmed in us by no less price than the blood of thine only Son: but grant we may so persist in thy service, that our lives and conversations may be witnesses to that holy vocation wherein our hope rests satisfied that we have eternal salvation; till at the length we come to the inheritance of that kingdom, which hath been so dearly purchased for us, therein to gather and reap the fruit of our faith, integrity, and perseverance, in the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
